An Offer For Safety

Jade stepped back as Jeremiah blasted Daolon Wong and his minions back to Kingdom Come.

Jackie saw Jade running up to him.

"Jackie!" Jade exclaimed, wrapping her arms around Jackie's neck in a firm hug.

"Jade." Jackie said.

"If I were you, Mister Chan," Jeremiah said. "I would consider letting your niece live with Dorinda, Joey, Nika, and me in Fairyardia."

"I wouldn't want to impose." Jackie said to Jeremiah.

Dorrie Lucinda came over to where Jackie stood talking with her mother and father, Dorrie Lucinda had Joseph in her arms.

"You won't be imposing," Dorrie Lucinda reassured Jackie. "Joey and I love playing with Auntie Jade!"

"Your niece will be perfectly safe with us, Mister Chan, Uncle Taboc has plenty of space in his palace." Danika said.

Jackie turned to go.

"Where are you going?" Jeremiah asked Jackie.

Jackie turned and faced Jeremiah.

"I need to talk to Uncle and Tohru in private about Jade." Jackie answered Jeremiah.

"Take all the time you need." Jeremiah said to Jackie.

Jackie raced off to find Uncle and Tohru.

Uncle and Tohru were in Uncle's workshop working on a spell.

"Uncle," Jackie said. "I need to talk to you and Tohru."

Uncle and Tohru stopped what they were doing.

"If it's about our Jade, then I know what Wong wants with her." Uncle said to Jackie, gravely serious.

"What, Sensei?" Tohru asked,

"He's found out that she's Fairyardian." Uncle replied to Tohru.

"But she looked human when I saw her earlier." Tohru said, puzzled.

"That's because their kind are shapeshifters," Jackie said. "females can change from fairy to human and back whenever they want not to mention being the keepers of a lot of other powerful magic!"

"No wonder Wong is after her, with Jade, he could blackmail the Fairyardians to hand over all their powers!" Tohru exclaimed.

"Yeah," Uncle said. "but there is no way that we're going to let that happen!"

"And we won't, Uncle." Jackie said.

Tohru saw Jackie beginning to take off, "Where are you going?" he asked.

"To Jade's room," Jackie called. "to tell her to pack her belongings."

Jackie raced out of Uncle's workshop.

"Good luck, Jackie." Tohru said.

When Jackie found his niece, Jade was busily helping Wu Chang, the imperial family's sorcerer with his own spells and potions.
